C energy cannot be created or destroyed

Answer:

The answer is C. It has decreased.

Explanation:

As the metal radiator’s temperature fell from 90 degrees to 40 degrees Celsius, the thermal energy (quantity of heat or heat energy which depends on the temperature: the higher the temperature, the higher the thermal energy, and vice-versa) decreased because heat was dissipated from the radiator; as a result, the molecules lost thermal energy.

In a certain process, the energy change of the system is 250 \rm kJ. The process involves 480 \rm kJ of work done by the system.
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

\Delta Q=-230kJ

Explanation:

Using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U=\Delta Q-W

Where \Delta U is the change in the internal energy of the system, in this case  \Delta U=250kJ, \Delta Q is the heat tranferred, and W is the work,  W=-480kJ with a negative sign since the work is done by the system.

From the previous equation we solve for heat, because it is the unknown variable in this problem

\Delta Q=\Delta U +W

And replacing the known values:

\Delta Q=250kJ +(-480kJ)

\Delta Q=250kJ -480kJ

\Delta Q=-230kJ

The negative sign shows us that the heat is tranferred from the system into the surroundings.

A car initially traveling at 15.0 m/s accelerates at a constant rate of 4.50 m/s2 over a distance of 45.0 m. How long does it ta
anygoal [31]

Answer:

2.24 seconds

Explanation:

xf = xo + vo t + 1/2 at^2

45 = 0 + 15 t  + 1/2 (4.5) t^2

   2.25 t^2 + 15t - 45 = 0              Quadratic formula shows  t = 2.24 seconds

Why do atoms like carbon and nitrogen not like to make ions, while sodium and chlorine do?
krok68 [10]
Atoms like carbon and nitrogen do not form ions because the electronegativity of these atoms are not that high nor very low which means electrons are fairly stable in the atom. While chlorine has very high electronegativity and for sodium very low, atoms tend to receive or release electrons.
